You can obsess and wring your hands and post multiple threads (running off people who might otherwise support you), or you can change. The world is changing and it was here first.
Who says the rest of us don't love what we do and wish there were more quality MTs in the industry (and give advice as to how to BE a good MT), but to cry poor work ethics as the reason work is going offshore and ignore and reject the reality of the industry will drive you into therapy or into a different career...thereby accelerating the extinction of MT as it has been in the past.
I don't pretend to speak for the others on the board, but the first time I read your postings, I agreed. But now, I feel you have a different motivation, have become selfish, manic, obsessive and a bit off balanced. I can't hear what you are saying because you are getting in the way of the message.
Nuff said.

QA editors adapt more quickly, but anyone can....
do VR if they are a decent MT. You're basically listening to the voice, making changes. If you know your stuff, you're fine, i.e. knowing the difference between "your" and "you're."
Alas. Those MP35's are extinct. SM
Lanier no longer makes them, if you mean the little button ear pieces with the thin wires. I have been looking for them for years. I think I bought the last set in captivity maybe 4 years ago.
There are no more - businesses have sent me links to headsets "just like the Lanier" but they aren't. If you use and love them, you'll know what I mean. 
It is rare, but not extinct to receive a
reply regarding how you fared on your test. For those of you who are presently going through this situation, I would suggest going back and reading the email you sent requesting the information. Often times online, the inflections in our words are misconstrued. You may be wasting time imaging the worst.
Second solution; just forward a copy of your original email to them; it only takes 10 seconds.
try link inside--adapt to fit your business--sm
